| Vygotsky's Higher/Lower Functioning | - |
| Zone of Proximinal Development | Vygotsky. Similar to scaffolding. Enables a ready child to achieve the task with a sufficient "boost", usually from a "knowledgeable other" via modeling, either a teacher or peer (coop learning). |
| Dewey | Children should be involved in real-life tasks--school should teach students how to be successful adults via life skills. Learning is active. Social change occurs via education. |

| Meta-cognition | Knowledge about one's own thinking processes. |
| Readiness | Piaget. Based on the idea that development precedes learning/knowledge. The idea that a child is at a level capable of understanding something. |
| Schema | Concepts, means for organizing information |
| Intrinsic motivation | Motivation that comes from within, such as personal pride and satisfaction. Not outside rewards such as grades or money. Pleasure from the task itself. |
| Extrinsic motivation | Motivation from external rewards such as grades, money, or praise from others. Pleasures that may not come from the task itself. |
